Corruption Point [4]

Nightmare Or Reality?

             "If that's what you ask"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In her dreams a golden light shined warming her heart, James she whispered, the words of the note etched into her brain. Suddenly the golden light became blinding and Frieda's eyes snapped open, Ace standing next to her his hands out his magic flowing. I thought I told you to get some rest, she glanced outside it was still dark the watch on her hand indicated that it was two in the morning, only two hours ago Isabel was in this room, only two hours ago, the events still fresh in her mind.

Well like you Ace said, when I'm stubborn about something, I will stop at nothing until it is done.

Does this mean you didn't get any sleep at all Frieda said in shock.

Why didn't you tell the Winx about James's note Ace asked avoiding her question.

First off that was meant for me Frieda said you had no right to read it, and secondly I'm going to tell the Winx..... eventually.

To be fair I found it flying around in the forest Ace said. He then looked at her with concern, why won't you tell the Winx now, the world and everything we know can be destroyed at any moment!

I read the note I know what it said, but there's enough stress on everyone's shoulders as it is Frieda said, we've yet to win a single battle against the Trix. Yes I know if the world ends it won't make a difference but if it continues to live on it will. Look I'm used to this I come from Earth where they predict that the worlds going to end every hundred years, but guess what it never does and you did nothing and waited and waited and in the end nothing; and once the day was over you returned to your normal lives. I understand it's a big deal, one day we're here the next we're not, but the Winx are worried about everything else right now; I mean did you see how hard Flora took it upon herself when she let what happened happen, the last thing they need to worry about it the world ending.

But if James has to, and the world ends, then what Ace asked, we can't pretend that this isn't effecting us!

James will do what he has to do wether it will be for bad or for good it's going to happen Frieda said, and if the world ends and our stories erased then so be it, then nothing we do can change that, and telling the Winx and having them worry about it won't do use any good. We're not going to pretend that it's not affecting us because it is affecting us, but James will have to do what he has to do in his world; and we have to continue living our lives in our world.

I don't understand how you can be so calm about this Ace asked in a panic.

Because it's James, Frieda said he survived the deadliest and achieved the impossible; and even if the world ends we'll be in good hands because James is still there.

So you're not telling the Winx Ace said, because you don't want them to bug out, stress out, or just give up because they know the end is near.

Frieda nodded her head. Now she said glaring at him, how much sleep did you get?

None Ace said sheepishly.

Ace! Frieda said staring up at him, you get in that bed this instant and get some sleep right now! Or else I will make sure you do she said as in her right hand her magic sparked.

Eric was right, Ace said you can be scary at times.

Now Ace, Frieda said loudly. He left her bed in the infirmary and went to an empty one and immediately fell a sleep. She smiled in satisfaction knowing she was right and he was being stubborn, besides she was fine. The note laid in her hand crumpled, she understood Ace's reaction it was only normal, but Frieda was not normal she was unordinary and she wanted to do what was best, and right now what was best was to focus on their world the here and now. She'll admit she thought of texting James, but he was probably trying to save the world; literally, now wasn't the time; she just had to keep on going. Don't stop and freeze, don't fall; just float.
